Gw Smiles At Mona Lisa

That her smile's famous is simply dumb luck
So what if the art world is by it struck --
  Washington's smile's just the same
  His powdered wig's like a dame's --
And at least George's picture's worth a buck

Well written, especially the last line ... a real money line. Bill

(chuckling) Very clever, gw. I've always hear Washington's mouth looked like that because he was having a toothache. Who knows! And I have no idea what was Mona Lisa's excuse.
